MinGW: Minimalist GNU For Windows

MinGW: A collection of freely available and freely distributable Windows specific header files and import libraries combined with GNU toolsets that allow one to produce native Windows programs that do not rely on any 3rd-party DLLs.

MSYS: A Minimal SYStem to allow the typical POSIX/Bourne configure script to execute to create a Makefile so that you can execute make.

Mailing Lists:We have several mailing list you are encouraged to join and participate in. There is a general discussion list mingw-users@lists.sf.net for general MinGW questions and a general discussion list mingw-msys@lists.sf.net for questions more related to MSYS and to using the Minimal SYStem. Information for signup and links to the archives can be found by clicking here. You may search the archives using the "Search the archives"form found on the left side of every www.mingw.orgpage.

We've found that this zip/unzip utility is fast and reliable for differing compression algorithms. If you need a decompression utility, you should visit 7-Zip for the latest version. If you don't need a compression/decompression utility, I suggest you visit 7-Zipfor one of the best compression algorithms available.
